Chapter 466 Who is the murderer?
Blood dripped onto the red embroidered shoes, and everyone stared at it with bated breath.
Zhou Xiuqin was extremely nervous, her eyes almost glued to the surface of her shoes.
I saw a faint thread of blood slowly winding out from the shoe surface, floating towards Si Hao's wrist, and finally connecting together.
Witnessing this scene, Tiantian's mother's legs softened and she collapsed to the ground, screaming in despair and disbelief:
"Hubby, how could it be you..."
Her voice was shrill and sorrowful, and she was in agony before she could even finish her words.
Zhou Xiuqin subconsciously defended her son, "It can't be Si Hao, he is Tiantian's biological father!"
Facing everyone's questioning, Si Hao looked confused and said innocently: "What is me? What happened?"
Mr. Si was so angry that he was shaking all over and stomped the cane in his hand heavily on the ground.
"You bastard, where did you learn these vile sorcery techniques? You actually used them to harm your own daughter!"
Si Hao was even more confused, his eyes widened, "Grandpa, what are you talking about? What on earth did you see? What kind of evil magic? When did I ever harm Tiantian?"
Shen Wan simply picked up the small spray bottle and sprayed it into Si Hao's eyes.
In an instant, the scene in front of Si Hao's eyes suddenly changed, and the bloody thread connecting himself and the red embroidered shoes appeared clearly in his eyes.
His face turned pale in an instant, his eyes widened in horror, he staggered and almost fell.
"What is this?"
He screamed in fear, as if he had seen a ghost.
Mr. Si was furious. He raised his cane high and hit Si Hao on the head with a bang.
"You bastard! How dare you ask what this is?"
"Tell me, was it you who caused Tiantian to be poisoned by the soul-calling curse?"
Si Hao frowned and was about to explain when Zhou Xiuqin suddenly stood up and said in a sharp and urgent voice: "Dad, don't force him, I did it."
Everyone's eyes turned to her, their expressions filled with shock and confusion.
Zhou Xiuqin took a deep breath and said, "I took Sihao's blood while he was having a blood test. I did everything."
Tiantian's mother's face was full of disbelief, her lips trembling, "Mother-in-law, you..."
Zhou Xiuqin sighed helplessly, with a complicated look in her eyes.
"Mother, don't blame me for being cruel. I just want a little grandson. As you know, our family has always wanted a boy to carry on the family line. I have been asking around for a long time and found out that this method might help you get pregnant again and give birth to a son."
Tiantian's mother burst into tears and shouted angrily: "Tiantian is your granddaughter! How could you hurt her like this?"
Zhou Xiuqin lowered her head, not daring to look her in the eyes.
Si Hao looked at his mother with disappointment on his face, "Mom, how can you be so confused!"
Mr. Si was so angry that he slumped in his chair: "What a sin, what a sin!"
Shen Wan said faintly: "Zhou Xiuqin, tell me, how did you find this evil magic."
Zhou Xiuqin stammered, "I asked someone to find a master, and he calculated that my son was destined to have another son. It's just that Tiantian, as his elder sister, would bring bad luck to him, so I paid a lot of money to ask the master to make Tiantian weaker. I really didn't intend to kill Tiantian. As long as she becomes weak and doesn't suppress her brother's fate, and the brother is born, that will be enough. Then the master will do something to make her better again..."
Tiantian’s mother got up from the ground, rushed over and slapped Zhou Xiuqin hard.
"You keep saying you don't care that she's a girl, but you actually wish Tiantian would die, don't you?"
"You evil mother-in-law!"
Zhou Xiuqin covered her swollen face, feeling a little embarrassed: "I am doing this for your and Si Hao's sake. After all, the Si family has only one son for five generations..."
"Shut up! I hate it most when you keep talking about the fifth generation of single inheritance!"
Tiantian's mother angrily scolded: "What's wrong with girls? Are girls inferior to boys?"
Si Hao hugged his wife distressedly, "Wife, I have never felt this way. No matter whether it is a boy or a girl, they are all my children!"
Tiantian’s mother leaned on his shoulder and cried.
Chen Wan brought a glass of water over and said, "Tiantian's mom, don't be too sad. Drink some water to calm down."
"Thank you, Master Shen..." Tiantian's mother took it and drank it all.
She looked so grief-stricken that she had no time to care about anything else, and she didn't even notice the cunning that flashed across Shen Wan's eyes.
"Mom, starting today I will move out of the house with my wife and children." Si Hao looked straight at Zhou Xiuqin with a firm tone.
Zhou Xiuqin looked at him deeply, wanting to say something, but ultimately chose to remain silent.
Tiantian's mother pointed at Zhou Xiuqin and yelled, "You vicious woman, I don't want to see you again!"
Zhou Xiuqin nodded weakly, tears welling up in her eyes.
"It's my fault. I shouldn't have been so obsessed with wanting a grandson. Son and daughter-in-law, you are right to blame me. I did something wrong. I'm sorry..."
Chen Wan suddenly asked, "Did you get the blood on the red embroidered shoes?"
Zhou Xiuqin just nodded and said yes, only to find that Shen Wan's eyes passed over her and fell on her daughter-in-law.
Tiantian's mother was stunned for a moment, her brain was still in a mess, but her mouth opened uncontrollably and responded: "It's me."
As soon as she said this, she suddenly came to her senses and covered her mouth in panic.
Everyone looked at Shen Wan in confusion.
Shen Wan picked up the empty teacup and shook it, smiling slightly.
Mr. Si suddenly thought of something: "Mantra! There is a mantra in the tea."
When Tiantian’s mother heard this, her whole body trembled, the blood color on her face instantly faded, and she became as pale as paper.
"Master Shen, why did you let me drink the magic water? What will happen to me if I drink this?"
Looking at her panic-stricken look, Shen Wan's smile deepened, and he said slowly: "The mantra, as the name suggests, means that you will tell the truth after drinking it."
Tiantian’s mother was horrified and turned to leave.
Zhou Xiuqin quickly grabbed her and said in a cold tone, "That's not right. When did you spill Sihao's blood on the red embroidered shoes? I clearly threw it away."
Tiantian’s mother shook her head desperately to remain silent, but her mouth blurted out the words uncontrollably.
"I picked it up from the trash."
Zhou Xiuqin's eyes widened: "Have you read the instructions the master gave me? All the steps are written on paper!"
Tiantian's mother bit her lips so hard that she bled but couldn't stop herself from telling the truth, "Yes! I accidentally saw the paper you left on the dressing table, and then I knew that you wanted to make Tiantian sick in order to have a grandson!"
Si Hao was shocked: "Wife, what's going on? Is Tiantian's illness related to you?"
Tiantian's mother closed her eyes in despair and screamed, "Don't blame me, don't blame me..."
"If you want to blame someone, blame your Si family. It's you who want to kill me and my daughter!"
